Answer:
a. p(orange) = 5/14
b. p(green) = 3/14
c. p(red) = 1/7
d. p(brown) = 2/7
e. p(brown or red) = 3/7
Step-by-step explanation:
1. You have a 14 pencils. Two pencils are red, 5 pencils are orange, 3 pencils are green and 4 pencils are brown.
p(color) = (number of pencils of that color)/(total number of pencils)
p(color) = (number of pencils of that color)/14
a. If a pencil is picked at random, what is the probability that the pencil
will be orange?
p(orange) = 5/14
b. If a pencil is picked at random, what is the probability that the pencil
will be green?
p(green) = 3/14
c. If a pencil is picked at random, what is the probability that the pencil will be red?
p(red) = 2/14 = 1/7
d. If a pencil is picked at random, what is the probability that the pencil
will be brown?
p(brown) = 4/14 = 2/7
e. If a pencil is picked at random, what is the probability that the pencil
will be brown or red?
brown: 4
red: 2
brown or red: 4 + 2
p(brown or red) = 6/14 = 3/7
The answer is 30 because 5×6=30 and 6×5=30.So the smallest number of books each could have shelved is 30 books...
Answer:
The value of BK is 3m and the value of CK is 2.4m.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given information: ABCD trapezoid
, BC=1.2m, AD=1.8m
, AB=1.5m, CD=1.2m
, AB∩CD=K.
Using the given information draw a figure.
Two sides of a trapezoid are parallel.
Since AB∩CD=K, therefore AB and CD are not parallel, because parallel line never intersect.

(Corresponding angles)
(Corresponding angles)
By AA rule of similarity

Corresponding sides of similar triangles are proportional.






The length of BK is 3 m.




The length of CK is 2.4 m.
